About Moi

I was born in June 1981, I'm a hearing impaired paper-crafter who loves all things crafty. I sew, although I'm still very much a novice at sewing. I bake and cook hopefully all kinds of delicious treats. I have a huge passion for photography and the camera {yes I'm old school I still use an actual camera} is never far from me. I also love creative writing from making up sentiments/verses for my cards and other paper-craft projects to penning some fiction. I am an avid reader and I may even throw in some book reviews on here too!

For this project I fancied doing something a little
different so I altered a note book.It’s
for the http://poequoththeraven.blogspot.co.uk/ Challenge.I have used Ike’s
Skelley gossip image and witch image.I
free hand drew the cross and grave, the tree is stamped but I cannot remember
but I think it’s a docraft stamp.

The background is inked with distress inks and the leaves
are heat embossed using a cosmic shimmer embossing powder.

For this project I bought the heart shapes but they are
simple enough to make if you are good at woodwork {I’m not!} or have someone
who can do it for you.

I gesso’d the hearts first with a very thin layer so that it
wouldn’t take so much ink to cover them.I inked using dusters…and used shaded lilac, peacock feathers and picked
raspberry distress inks.I had to apply
a few coats though so I did this over a couple of days until I got the depth of
colour I wanted.Then I added the liquid
pearls around the border.I stamped the
quotes onto acetate and left them to dry with the liquid pearls overnight.Then I glued the acetate on using glossy
accents to create a quick and easy project.

As some of you know I’ve had a tricky time lately but
despite the ongoing issues craft is now very high on my agenda once again.Thank you for bearing with me during this
time.

Thank you
